fearless women pray!
If I’m completely honest with you — today felt heavy. Work was gruesome; from start to finish I felt like I was playing catch-up the entire day. My thoughts were scattered, I was exhausted, and I considered walking away several times. It be like that sometimes… LOL. Some days are magical and other days are mind-blowing with drama, confusion, and one too many situations to de-escalate! That’s life, and I figure why complain because it could be worse. So if you’re reading this and anything like me, let’s close with a prayer of gratitude and call it a night.
“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” - Psalm 107:1
Dear God, thank you for this moment and for this day. I stopped by just to thank you yet again for another blessing of life, health, and strength. For my family and friends I pray that you would continue to cover them with love and protection always. Thank you for the tough days; thank you for carrying me through this one because even when the road felt heavy and unbearable, you gave me the strength I needed to endure more and to keep going. God, I thank you for every lesson, every moment of grace, and every blessing I may not have recognized along the way. Before I lay my head down tonight, I release the stress, worries, disappointments, and all the things I could not control. Renew my mind, quiet my heart, and cover me with your peace. Help me to trust that tomorrow will bring new opportunities filled with your mercy, grace, purpose, and promise. Thank you, God, for never leaving me and for reminding me that I do not have to carry anything alone. Tough days build character even when we don’t realize it, and for that I’m grateful. Keep me grounded, keep me humble, and help me to remain teachable at all times. Lord, thank you for shifting my mindset out of defeat and into a peace that surpasses all understanding; may the rest of the Holy Spirit abide in me forever. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
